Bust out the baby powder.
The Big Picture When J. K. Rowling penned one of the most famous young adult series in history, she also invented an entire fictional culture. The wizarding world of Harry Potter was born in Rowling's brain, along with each side of good and evil, the interactions between magical beings, and all the intricately crafted locations found across the series. Whether it's the different shops in Diagon Alley or the various wizard schools, the Harry Potter universe feels incredibly fleshed out.
How Do Witches and Wizards Play Quidditch in 'Harry Potter'? No doubt, fans are well aware that the sport of Quidditch — in which two teams pit against each other, vying for victory while flying on speedy broomsticks — originates from the magical world. The rules, all invented by Rowling, stipulate that each team plays with seven players, and they score points by having their Chasers throw a red ball, called the Quaffle, through one of the opponents' three goal hoops.
Right from the start of the first film, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Harry makes it onto the Gryffindor Quidditch team as a Seeker, becoming the youngest student to do so, and all by accident. During one of his first broomstick lessons, Harry, being the natural hero that he is, defends his new friend Neville's honor as Draco Malfoy swipes a magical trinket from him.
Quidditch makes a few more appearances in subsequent movies in the series, but none of them focus on the sport as much as the first two films do. In the fourth installment, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Harry joins the Weasley's at the Quidditch World Cup early in the film. Here, we get a glimpse of what professionals in the magical sport look like and how skilled they truly are. This event occurs before the students return to Hogwarts and the confusing Tri-Wizard Tournament begins.
